Matthew Herbert was simply brilliant yesterday afternoon- in fact the only downer was the small audience - clearly Greenbelt punters are not as discriminating in their choice of music - or perhaps its a reflection of the diversity of music on offer that a mainstage act of such quality draws such numbers.
If you want a feel for his music then listen here. Imagine a traditional highly skilled big band mixed with sampling and electronic effects. Some have compared it with the more orchestral tracks of the Cinematic Orchestra but it is more swing than that - if anything it is closer to the more electronic versions of the Petshop Boys. Anyway his music for "The Intended" has among other tracks given me much enjoyment.
I was slightly apprehensive as to how the scope of his music would switch to a big stage format - how does film music achieve that transfer. But the Big Band vehicle provides that opportunity - complete with jokes and introductions and the stageiness of the best of the live Big Band genre.
Looking forward to Jamie Catto this afternoon - a key part of the sound of the early Faithless and now one half of 1 Giant Leap
The myth that you can build a self-storage facility in the middle of nowhere and fill it up needs to be exposed. Self-storage relies on people - people who need to store stuff.
